NCBA Bank , in collaboration with Water.org , has convened more than 100 private school owners in Naivasha to explore innovative solutions that can drive the long-term resilience and growth of educational institutions. The engagement focused on how sustainability, digital banking, and risk management can help schools navigate rising operational costs, increasing digital demands, and environmental pressures.
Recognizing schools as vital engines of Kenya's social and economic development-providing employment, supporting local businesses, and shaping future leaders-NCBA reaffirmed its commitment to supporting education stakeholders with tailored financial and digital solutions.
Among the key offerings highlighted were NCBA Tills and ConnectPlus, which enhance financial efficiency and transparency, and Soma Plus, a school management platform designed to streamline administration. The bank also emphasized its affordable Green and WASH Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene loans, aimed at promoting sustainability, as well as protection through Bancassurance and flexible asset financing and leasing options to ease upfront cost burdens.
